I'd agree 110% with Dewey. Inside or outside, I wouldn't deliver the boat without a shakedown cruise, preferably 48 hours but AT LEAST one whole day at sea.
You know the way odd things just find a way to happen. That mechanic may actually have seen something that is wrong, and just not processed it at a concious level yet. That's what hunches often mean. And, even with brand new parts and fittings, sometimes they just bust in the first couple of days, or ship DOA from the factory.
Of course, if it insures over the purchase price, and the delivery skipper feels like being daring...Well, you're insured and that's his life.
